Many Waters district is dedicated to helping leaders get trained. To do so, we hold training events such as those listed below. In addition much of the training is available online (see information at http://training.nsbsa.org/info/OnlineTraining.aspx ).

If your leaders are not able to attend events scheduled by Many Waters district or other Northern Star Council districts (see information below) please contact Miranda Oliver at training.mw.nsbsa@gmail.com or 651-982-2913. We can bring the training to you. All we need is enough lead time to assemble trainers and find a location.

Training at your unit can be a great team building event. We encourage troops to have all of the adult leaders attend a troop sponsored Troop Committee Challenge every 2 to 3 years. We will send one or two instructors out to your unit at a time convenient to you. Please contact Miranda Oliver to schedule your troop.

We are developing a similar program called "Pack"aging for the Cub Scout packs. It will cover pack structure, roles within the pack, annual planning and other topics relevant to your pack. Please contact Pat Johnston to schedule your pack.

The following charts show what courses you must complete to be considered trained for your current registered position. If you change positions, you may have to take additional training to maintain your trained status.
